Help, Editing Items in an array.

[jaybeeb]

Hi All,
I have an array with details from a building in it. What I want to do is ask the user to enter a reg. no for a building and for them to be able to change the matching details.

Below is my code - the edit part is case 3. It is very messy as I got lost during it

import java.util.Scanner;

public class MainRates 
{
	
	public static void Menu()
	{
		Scanner input=new Scanner(System.in);
		int option1;
		int option2;
		
		
		Industrial indBuild[] = new Industrial[ 3 ];
		
		int counter = 0;
		int editcounter1 = 0; /*editcounter
		int editreg1;            /*edit regnumber
		{
		
			do{
				System.out.println("\n----------MAIN MENU----------\n1. Industrial\n2. Office\n3. Residential\n4. Quit\nEnter Option Number: ");
				option1 = input.nextInt();
		
				switch(option1)
				{
					case 1:
					{
						System.out.println("\n-------INDUSTRIAL MENU-------");
						System.out.println("1. Add Building");
						System.out.println("2. Display Buildings");
						System.out.println("3. Edit Building Details");
						System.out.println("4. Main Menu");
						System.out.println("Enter Option Number: ");
						
						
						option2 = input.nextInt();
						switch(option2)
						{
							case 1:
							{
								System.out.println("\n---ADD INDUSTRIAL BUILDING---");
								Industrial ind1 = new Industrial("","",0,0.0,"");
								System.out.println("Enter Owner: ");
								ind1.setowner(input.next());
								System.out.println("Enter Address: ");
								ind1.setaddress(input.next());
								System.out.println("Enter Phone Number: ");
								ind1.setphoneNumber(input.nextInt());
								System.out.println("Enter Square Metres: ");
								ind1.setsquareMetres(input.nextDouble());
								System.out.println("Enter Industry Type: ");
								ind1.setindustryType(input.next());
								
								ind1.setcalculateRate();
								System.out.println(ind1);
								
								counter = counter + 1;
								indBuild[counter] = ind1;
								
								for ( int i = 0; i < indBuild.length; i++ )
								{
									System.out.println(indBuild[i]);
								}
								break;
							}
							
							case 2:
							{
								for ( int i =0; i < indBuild.length; i++)
								{
									System.out.println(indBuild[i]);
								}
								break;
							}
							
							case 3: /*edit case
							{
								while(editcounter1 != 0)
		                           {
		                           System.out.println("Enter building registration number for edit");
		                           editreg1 = input.nextInt();

		                           ind1 = setregnum(editreg1);

		                           editcounter1 = 0;

		                           }
								break;
							}
						}
						break;						
					}

Learn to code so that we can read it, which means, use proper tabs, where they're needed.

Also, is an error occurring, or is the output not as it should be? Post the details, then we/I can help you.

Hi, sorry about the code - too much tabbing.

Basically I am just not sure how to get it so I can edit the different details. the edit code is not finished the way it is now and I am just not sure what else to do to get it sorted.
